As the countdown to the 2012 NFL Draft continues, Sporting News examines talent depth at every position before the first pick is made. The draft's first round will be April 26, followed by Rounds 2 and 3 on April 27—both in prime time. Rounds 4-7 will be called April 28. Today: quarterbacks.

1. Robert Griffin III (6-2, 223), Baylor. Griffin has the rare combination of elite athleticism and great passing skills. He reminds us of Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young.

2. Andrew Luck (6-4, 234), Stanford. Luck is as polished entering the NFL as any quarterback in recent memory and will flourish in Indianapolis.

3. Ryan Tannehill (6-4, 221), Texas A&M. Tannehill has risen up draft boards so fast because he reminds many of a more consistent Jay Cutler.

4. Brandon Weeden (6-4, 221), Oklahoma State. His arm strength and accuracy will lead to him being drafted in first two rounds even though he will turn 29 in October.

5. Brock Osweiler (6-7, 242), Arizona State. A vastly underrated athlete, he has the ability to throw accurately from within the pocket and on the move.

6. Kirk Cousins (6-3, 214), Michigan State.

7. Ryan Lindley (6-4, 229), San Diego State.

8. Nick Foles (6-5, 243), Arizona.

9. Kellen Moore (6-0, 197), Boise State.

10. B.J. Coleman (6-3, 233), Tennessee-Chattanooga.

11. John Brantley (6-3, 220), Florida.

12. Russell Wilson (5-11, 204), Wisconsin.

13. Jacory Harris (6-3, 203), Miami.

14. Case Keenum (6-1, 208), Houston.

15. Dominique Davis (6-3, 210), East Carolina.

16. Jordan Jefferson (6-4, 223), LSU.

17. Chandler Harnish (6-2, 219), Northern Illinois.

18. Nathan Dick (6-4, 222), Central Arkansas.

19. G.J. Kinne (6-2, 224), Tulsa.

20. Austin Davis (6-2, 219), Southern Mississippi.

Strongest arm

Ryan Tannehill. The ball explodes out of Tannehill's hand and gets to the receiver before defenders can make a play.

Quickest release

Robert Griffin III. Griffin gets rid of the ball extremely fast, and it comes out of his hand with outstanding velocity.

Most dangerous runner

Griffin. He has the elusiveness to avoid tacklers and the incredible speed to outrun angles to make big plays.

Toughest

Andrew Luck. He shows no fear standing strong and takes violent hits to make strong and accurate throws.

Most battle-tested

Luck. Over the last two seasons, no quarterback has played in more big games than Luck.

Most accurate

Griffin. After charting this year's quarterbacks, it’s clear that Griffin is the most accurate of them all.
